We had booked our horse-riding afternoon safari through Wild Horizons and this was the only third-party activity we had any administrative issues with. Firstly let me say that the actual horse riding itself was outstanding – two full hours wandering through a game reserve and we encountered a large herd of buffalo, baboons and impalas galore. Being on horseback meant... More

I am personally not a horse person but this gives you a feel of being closer to nature than using a car. Somewhat scary for first time riders but should be easy for other riders

The tours that this organisation does are adapted to the rider's level. If you are a beginner, they will never take you into thick bush or close to wild animals. This to ensure your safety. I am an experienced rider so I went on a ride into thick bush, next to the Zambesi river and up close to buffalo, waterbok,... More

We went on this horse back ride through the Zambezi National Park. Since we are not very experienced riders and older than 50, we each had our own guide who rode alongside of us, steadied our horses while we took pictures and were very protective of us. Reason was the head guide - he took care of 2 very experienced... More

It was wonderful to see wild animals upclose on horseback- they were not spooked in the least.

We had a great ride into the brush, saw impalas, whitebuck, baboon, warthogs, and cape buffalo. Our guide was very good, I felt safe even with the buffalo bull staring at us intently! Nice experience.

Me and my husband did the 3 hour horse trail in the National Park. It is absolutely amazing and we saw up close elephants, springbok and buffalo (that was a little scary!) . The pace of ride is fairly slow obviously around the animals, we managed to trot in some more open spaces but generally it would be suitable for... More

I, my hubby and our two kids visited the Zambezi National Park recently. We opted for the horse riding. For me and my hubby this was not something new. However, it was the first horse riding experience for our kids. The long horse ride at the Zambezi National Park was great. It is still a memorable experience. My kids too... More

It was a truly great experience at the Zambezi National Park. I and my wife took up horse riding and it was amazing. Though I have gone for horse riding before, for my wife it was completely a new experience. The guides did a great job in making us feel safe and secure. They professionally handled everything and there was... More

We (family with 2 adults and 2 young children) went horse-riding in the Zambezi national park for around 2.5 hours in Dec. It was an outstanding experience. The guides were superb - they took special care of our kids. Our 5 year old was on a horse on his own, being led by a guide in another horse while our... More
